On more than one occasion we in
tended calling attention to the manner
in which na2ny men, principally young
men, conducted themselves after COM
ing from the church door on Sundays. |
but we hesitated, hoping to hear from
the priests shemselves before making |
any criticisms. On Sunday last at
early mass in one of the Catholic
churches in this city the priest spoke in
no uncertain tone about the discredit
brought upon the church through the
thoughtlessnesso Of her children On ieav
ing the church. Standing about the
doors and steps, gazing, gawking, max
ing remarks entirely out Of place, is
entirely unbecoming any Catholic, and
we hops to see no more of it. Young
men, the eyes of the city are upon you,
and you should conduct yourselves in a
more becoming manner. When leaving
the church, walk homeward, and do not
stand in the way of those who try to
conduct themselves as Catholics should.
